One hour.
Zero pounds.
One wild afternoon.
The Woodland Ranger Mission is a free trail your kids can follow in any woodland, start to finish in about an hour. No booking, no kit, no "I'm bored." And we'll help you find a woodland near you.
Works in any wood, forest or leafy park. Rain counts double.
The Trail
Become a Wildling Ranger
One long trail, about an hour start to finish, or download it before you go. Woodlands are famously bad at Wi-Fi.
Tap to draw a mission, do it, tick it off, draw the next. About 14 missions, then one big project to finish on.

Finish with one big project
Rangers leave the woodland better than they found it. Pick one and build it properly. This is the big one.
Den HQ
Build a den big enough to sit inside. Branches, lean-tos, ambition.

For grown-ups
Never invent an activity again
You don't need to plan a thing. The stages run themselves. And when little legs need a sit-down, drop one of these in. No right answers, no prep.
Not this woodland today? There's another one closer than you think.
